Question

As a user I type following command into the java console:

!login <Username> <udpPort>

so, i.e.

!login Bob 2233

What I need is to easily get the values from this input:

String username = "Bob";
int port = 2233;

I am using a BufferedReader to get the input.

I already tried: But of course this is not working. But thats what I would like to have:

String [] input = in.readReadLine(); //ofcourse this is not working

Then I can easily assign the values:

String username = input[2]; //save "Bob"
int port = Integer.parseInt(input[3]); //save 2233

Any advices appreciated,
Dave

BufferedReaeder readLine() method return String.

Once you get String, you need to either Split(); (or) StringTokenizer to get as separate Strings.
